About Animated Knots

Frequently Asked Questions:

We get several e-mails a week asking questions about the website and our Apps. This page attempts to answer some of the questions that get asked most often.

May I Link to the Website? Of course! A Google Search for "animatedknots.com" obtained over 170,000 results. However, the more people that link to this website the more we like it. And thank you to all of you who already provide links to us.

How Can I Use This Material for Teaching? This question is often asked by people who wish to use the animations for classroom teaching. The content of the website is available via
Download. The animation images are larger, there are no advertisements, and the program runs without access to the Internet.

May I Copy the Program on to a Second Computer? We assume people will wish to use a copy on their laptop as well as on the desktop.

May I Copy the Pictures? The material on this website is all copyright protected. Please respect this. Many years of work underlie this website and days of work underlie each completed page and animation.

What Happens if I Change Phones or Computers? Each of our programs is crafted for its own platform. If you have been using an Android version and then buy on iPhone, you will need to buy the version for the iPhone. Similarly, the iPhone and iPad versions are different from each other. However, if all you are doing is upgrading your equipment, the program remains yours.
